Deer Takes Out Runner in D3 Regional

It is bow hunting season in PA right now. Rifle season for deer starts the Monday after Thanksgiving.

Also, OP should have titled this "Hobby jogger taken out in D3 Regional" since he is not a 22 minute 8k runner (like everyone on here).

I think the deer tempo'd the course. They're saving it for nationals, where it counts. Expect a podium finish from them this year.

Actually, the first runner/deer collision on this course was at the 1998 Mideast Regional meet, where Jeff Doyon of Swarthmore collided with a deer. Then, it happened again last year, and now this year.

The 1998 incident was in Sports Illustrated:

Made it viral on Russia Today.

Putin cares about Pennsylvania cross country? Who knew.

I see shades of that crazy Irish priest Neil Horan taking out Vanderlei da LIma at the 2004 Olympic marathon

Well, who won?

What I can't believe is that nobody stopped initially to help him except the tall black guy that goes over to him after he's sitting there - The real 'True Winner' in my book! Races are important but if you can't stop and help someone when they go down in something horrible or in special circumstances like that, then 'F - U Big time selfish pricks!" It's a f'ing cross country race, not 'Death Race 3000'. Jeeeessshhh.........

I wouldn't have stopped. The race should have people there better trained than me for those situations. If the race was in the middle of a forest on single track, then I would have stopped and helped.

Ineligible. Deer antler spray.

Exactly, if I were one of his competitors in that situation, I would have assumed a nearby spectator would have helped him. This is d3 nationals, there will be parents and a few classmates throughout the course, along with the handful of officials working the meet. Help from a non-competitor could arrive anywhere on the course in half a minute.

If it wasn't mentioned, it happened at DIII Mideast regional race at Desales college. Happened the year before at Dickinson college as well during the Mideast region race.

Also happened not too far away at PA high school states a couple of years in a row at Hershey.

I know some articleS have mentioned it by After gathering himself and getting some help he got up and finished the race. (They're barely over a mile in at this point).

"I wouldn't have stopped. The race should have people there better trained than me for those situations. If the race was in the middle of a forest on single track, then I would have stopped and helped."

Obviously you're a Trump supporter.

Those deers are 100% not clean

Deer, not deers. It's already plural. You wouldn't say Chineses.

I'm going to spray Cheserek with deer attracting spray before NCAAs. My only chance to win...

I'm worried about the deer that hit him. I think it should see an optician.
